No European royal family is of their subject's nationality you fucking mong. The nobility has existed as a seperate race practically for thousands of years. They breed with one another: French marry Spanish, Italian marry Swedish. They are all a mongrel mix.

If you're interested the current Queen of the UK is directly descended from Victoria, despite them not being in the same House. Just proves what I'm saying really.

The female the Tudors married into wasn't English either, absolutely nothing English about the Tudors.

Do any of you know why King John was so controversial? Because he had to consolidate power in England as he was defeated in his homeland, which was Normandy and Anjou.

The Plantagenets and Normans would rather hold court in Rouen or Angers as their capital, London was ceremonial.

pure revisionism

>>2741052
'England and Wales had some 3 million inhabitants around 1300, which rose to 4 or 5 million in the late 1300's. The Black Death annihilated about half of the population. In the 15th century, it had dropped to 2 million, 8 times less than in France. The population grew back to 5 million by 1700, and to 9 million in 1800. At the dawn of the 19th century, the United Kingdom with Scotland and Ireland, had a population of 16 million, almost like Italy (17 million), but still lower than France (27 million) or Germany (25 million).'

Literally why are you on a history board if you have no respect for history? It's not a fucking video game where some people are baddies and others are goodies. There are no 'excuses' for defeats. It's just what fucking happened, and we're interested in WHY it happened. In this case, the why is that Britain's population was far smaller than France's.

An island doesn't mean shit unless you have a superior navy to your enemy. France had a superior navy until 1700.

Furthermore, other countries have been conquered far more than England.

England as an entity was conquered in 1066 and 1688.

France was conquered in 1870, 1813, 1940, 1944, 49, and 1415.

England has historically had a population miniscule to France, so it doesn't have a bad track record.

>this board is already shitty quality so I can be retarded

>>2741144
>The invasion was planned and organised long before a tiny group of unrepresentative, and not particularly important, English dissidents sent their so-called 'invitation' to the Prince of Orange. And although William led the invasion, he had very limited powers in the Dutch Republic. The armada and army were sent, and paid for, by the Dutch States General, Amsterdam and the regents, the group of urban patricians who ran the Dutch state. The Dutch army landed in Devon and gained military control of southern England. It had little assistance from the English rebels. They were too frightened to move against James II's substantial standing army until some three weeks after William's invasion had begun.

>The Prince of Orange held the strategic initiative from the outset. On paper, James had 40,000 men, but they were dispersed all over the country and there was no way he could concentrate an army as large as William's quickly enough. James finally drew up his forces on Salisbury Plain to bar William's path to London, but his army was smaller than the Prince's, as well as inferior in training, experience and equipment, and it was clear that if he fought, he would probably lose. That is why James abandoned the fight for London and retreated, demoralised.

Bloodless because the enemy fled to Ireland.

William had exactly one ancestor who came from Denmark, his great-great-great-great-grandfather Rollo, who tried to sack Paris and failed miserably, and later became a vassal of the king of France and settled in Normandy where he took a French wife as did every one of his descendants.

Clearly that makes him a Viking, much like every American who can hear his Viking ancestors calling to him.

>invaded by French again in 1153
This right here is when the English people should hang their heads in collective shame.

There was no shame in losing in 1066 because England got doubled-fucked on 2 opposing sides of the land; the Vikings at York thanks to Hardraada and that cunt Tostig and the Normans in the south by the Bastard. Too many veteran troops died in Fulford Gate and Stamford Bridge. Harold rushed into battle too soon after those brutal fights. Not to mention William the Bastard going apeshit in the Harrying of the North. After ethnic cleansing like that, no shit the Anglo-Saxons decided it was time to throw in the towel.

But the Anarchy was the perfect opportunity to expel the Normans and reassert an English-run government. Instead, the English rolled over and allowed Stephen and Matilda to treat their country as a battleground-turned-charnel house for decades. They willing sucked Plantagenet dick in the form of Henry II.
